Larson's Family Farm

We invite you to participate in the seasons by traveling to our farm to experience picking your own pumpkins and Christmas trees. While here to choose pumpkins in the fall, you will find gourds, squash, and fall harvest decorations. When you pick your pumpkins on a weekend, you can also see the farm on a hayride. Alternatively, you can schedule a special event; we offer evening bonfires on fall weekends and host school groups during weekdays.

The Forge Brewhouse

Former farrier brings his dedication and hard work to a new venue. The Forge Brewhouse is using the old traditions of “Rheinheitsgebot,” the German Beer Purity Law of 1516 that only allows beer to contain barley, water and hops, to brew signature beers in house. The Forge is also pushing beyond those traditions to make a corn beer to honor one of DeKalb County’s specialties, IPAs with jalepenos, and many other varieties. The Forge Brewhouse is also creating Brick Oven wood-fired farm to table pizzas.
